The entire run is sold out; however, the Donmar will be releasing more than 550 tickets each week, including Barclays Front Row (released 10am every Monday throughout the run) and Day Tickets (available in person at the Box Office every day).
The musical comedy is set in Broadway in the 1940s with two plots: a Hollywood comedy and a detective drama involving the world of a writer trying to turn his book into a screenplay and the world of the fictional film. It is a homage to the film noir genre of motion pictures in the 1940s.
Directed by Michael Blakemore, City of Angels ran on Broadway from 1989 to 1992 winning six Tony Awards in 1990. It was first performed in London's West End in 1993 with Blakemore again directing and Roger Allam as Stone, Martin Smith as Stine and Henry Goodman as Buddy Fidler leading the cast. It won the 1994 Olivier Award for Best Musical.
